About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Find the next place on Earth to live in! The world is so beautiful and I'm without roots, it's an hard choice ;)

ABOUT ME

I'm the kind of person that love to do sooo many different activities and have a looot of different interest, and at the end does not manage to succeed in any of them at all! But I'm getting convinced the one real important side in life is to keep in motion, never stop, look forward to new experiences and try to improve oneself.
So what about the next step? I like to live abroad and learn different cultures, so I'm now planning to spend some more time outside Italy. Teaching Italian abroad? Leaving, my laptop and I, to develop web sites through the world? Or just travel when possible.. I enjoy visiting new countries in general, but in the future I would like to spend some weeks where war has just finished, talk with people, understand what lies behind, face an aspect of real life I've never saw.
Btw! I'm an easy going and openminded guy, just as many persons here on CS, just as different as everybody.. hope that's enough ;)

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Of course traveling and hosting ppl when possible!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed with HC, went to Portugal in summer 2006! Really great, I have to thank my travelmate and (most of all) my host for that!

Interests

Languages, I'm not a really good languages speaker but I anyway consider them something charming! Music, when I have time I like to play guitar, or go to concerts, or dance, or sing.. I always sing when driving! (ask to people that meets me at traffic lights) My work, working on the web, being on internet, getting and sharing information.. even if spending the day in front of a laptom turns it into something to hate! Sports, I try to go twice a week to swim, then football, or btw something that keep me in motion (without exaggerating haha)
..and much more..!

Music, Movies, and Books

I should suggest movies by the Hong Kong's director Wong Kar Wai, I really love them. And I recently read Indecision by Benjamin Kunkel, a nice book about how traveling abroad can change oneself ;)
Music? I like world music, or ethnical-contaminated music.

Y2K's eve in the Korakoen park in Okayama, Japan.. ok ok nothing really amazing, but that was my first real journey abroad, waah was great! ;)
